2007 BC Baseball League
Fall Season Information Update
(Last Updated: July 4, 2007)
This following information is about the BC Baseball League’s Fall League. This information will allow teams to reserve a spot in the appropriate fall division of the BC Baseball League. The BC Baseball League’s Fall Season Program emphasizes development in a competitive atmosphere. We utilize a continuous batting order during the fall in order that teams may use this time to move players into positions that might not otherwise play in the spring/summer months as they begin their planning for the next season. A continuous batting order is really free substitution of all players at the game. Coaches also have the option of not using this tool simply by declaring their intent to use a continuous batting order or not for that game. Also, the Fall Season provides an opportunity for those 8U teams to experience kid-pitch before the start of their 9U season next spring.
The 2007 Fall League will be played on Saturdays and/or Sundays, similar to last year. We will schedule 8u, 9u and 10u, 11u and 12u age groups on Saturday afternoons and/or evenings., although some Sunday games could be a possibility in case of inclement weather. We also will schedule 13u and 14u age groups on Sunday afternoons and/or evenings, although some Saturday games could be a possibility in case of inclement weather. Game times used Saturday will be 3PM, 5PM and 7PM or 4PM, 6PM, 8PM; times for Sunday are 2PM, 4PM and 6PM or 1PM, 3PM and 5PM. As in past years, teams would be scheduled for one doubleheader per week. The 2007 Fall Season again will start with a pre-season tournament (which is included in the cost of the fall season registration) for the 14u to 8u teams. This tournament is scheduled for the Twin Oaks Complex in Columbia on for August 24-26, 2007. The Fall Season league games will begin the weekend after Labor Day, September 8-9, 2007, and conclude no later than October 13-14, 2007, including rain dates. The tournament will be a USSSA qualifier for the 2008 season for the 14U through 9U teams.
This packet contains details on all of the fall divisions. Most importantly, it contains a Fall Season Team Application Form. This Team Application Form is due with a $300 reservation fee on or before the Team Application Deadline of Wednesday, August 15, 2007. Following the Team Application Deadline, your team will be registered with the USSSA and your team insurance will be purchased. The remainder of your league fee will be due on or before August 22, 2007. Once your Team Application Form is received, you will be forwarded the remainder of your Team Registration Packet.

For the 2006 Fall Season, we also are planning several Evaluation For Team Placement Dates for players looking to play on 8U through 14U teams with the BC Baseball League in the Fall of 2007 and/or Spring/Summer of 2008.
